A 1U uni server with the power of a 2-socket server

[Suggested uses: Workloads that traditionally require dual-processor systems, such as e-mail

and collaboration, Web serving and Java-based applications; deployments that require a

dedicated server with high RAS features; branch office and departmental server.]

You need the RAS features of a 1U two-socket server, but without the second processor. The

IBM

System x3350, incorporating IBM X-Architecture

™

features, is a cost-efficient solution to

that dilemma. It’s a single-socket commercial application server that provides outstanding

reliability, availability and serviceability features, management control and levels of performance

previously available only with dual-processor systems. The x3350 affords lower costs, with leaner

power and cooling consumption than competitive 1U, two-processor servers. It supports, at the

high end, the latest enterprise-ready quad- and dual-core Intel

Xeon

™

processors, designed

with a speedy 1066MHz front-side bus (FSB) and 8MB (quad-core) or 1333MHz FSB and 4MB

(dual-core) of L2 cache, to help provide the computing power you need to match your business

needs and growth. In addition, the x3350 uses industry-standard DDR II 667MHz memory with

ECC (Error Checking and Correcting) protection—for high performance and reliability. Dual

integrated high-speed Gigabit Ethernet controllers with load-sharing and failover support are

standard, as are two high-performance x8 PCI-E adapter slots.

All models offer impressive scalability, including up to 8GB of memory and a choice of high-

performance hard disk drives with an internal storage capacity of 600GB (two 3.5-inch hot-swap

SAS), 587.2GB (four 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS), or 1.5TB (two 3.5-inch hot-swap or simple-

swap Serial ATA II). The integrated SAS/SATA controller provides hardware-based RAID-0/1

standard for the hot-swap drives. (Simple-swap SATA models are upgradeable to RAID-0/1

support.) The ultradense 1U form factor allows businesses to increase their computing power and

spread their workload without outgrowing their current data center. Up to 42 of these 1U servers

can be installed in a single 42U rack, for a total of up to 42 processors and 168 processor cores.

Optional Advanced Cabling Technology (ACT) reduces cable clutter and cost and minimizes

installation time when interconnecting many rack-mounted servers.

Standard in the x3350 is an integrated Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) that enables

the user to manage and control the server easily—both locally and remotely. This level of

manageability is designed to keep costs down and the system up—even when network usage

increases. The drop-down light path diagnostics panel enables quick servicing of the system if

a problem develops. Advanced features help maximize network availability by increasing uptime,

including simple-swap SATA HDDs; hot-swap/redundant SAS HDDs, integrated RAID;

temperature-controlled fans with Calibrated Vectored Cooling

™

; IPMI 2.0 support, including

highly secure remote power control, and IPMI over LAN.

With the inclusion of unique IBM service and support features such as the BMC, light path

diagnostics, IBM Director, IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager for x86 (formerly

known as PowerExecutive), IBM ServerGuide

™

and

support for the optional slotless Remote

Supervisor Adapter II SlimLine, the x3350 is designed for superior uptime.

If you need highly manageable, single-socket/dual- or quad-core computing power, or low cost in

a rack-dense package, the x3350 is the ideal system.

rice/Performance

The x3350 offers numerous features to boost performance and reduce product and operating

costs:

• High-performance quad-core or dual-core Xeon processor, high-end 1333MHz FSB with

4MB or 6MB (dual-core) or 6MB or 12MB (quad-core) of integrated Level 2 cache per

processor, offering superior performance capable of tackling the toughest jobs.

• Energy-efficient processors draw less power and produce lest waste heat than higher-

voltage processors, thus helping to reduce data center energy costs. The Xeon processors,

especially, are highly power-efficient, consuming only 65W per dual-core processor (32.5W

per core) or 95W per quad-core processor (23.75W per core).
